Penguin Birthdays

On January 9th, Lolly watched intently as I caught a big stringfish. Sorry kitty, but I can’t let you have this. 😆

Jeff, holding a stringfish as Lolly looks on: OH MY GOSH!

On Sunday (January 26th), Inkwell told me that he recently let a pill bug get away, and he was still mad about it.

Inkwell: I let another one get away, and I'm still steamed about it! Pill bug!

How the heck did a pill bug manage to outrun him? They’re one of the slowest bugs in the game. 😆 He asked me to catch one for him, and I did just that. He rewarded me with a heart tee.

Inkwell: Ha ha! A heart tee!
I feel like he’s laughing at me and my never-ending quest to earn his photo. I’m reading his “Ha ha” in Nelson Muntz’s voice.

Monday was Aurora’s birthday, so I headed over to her house for her party. It was just so dark in there, even though it wasn’t very late yet!

I gave her a juicy-apple clock for a birthday gift, and she seemed to enjoy it.

Aurora: Ooh, a juicy-apple clock. How thoughtful of you. Thanks!

Inkwell was also at the party, and he said he just did a triple axel off a chair before I got there. Suuuuure you did, Inkwell. 😛

Inkwell: You totally missed my awesome birthday dance! I did a triple axel off a chair!

I was having an unlucky day, so I fell a few times when I was running. Unfortunately, I didn’t time any photos perfectly enough, but here you can see me starting to get back up after falling. It still looks pretty odd, though! Almost like I’m a zombie with my arms hanging to the ground. 😆

At the museum, I had an intimidating encounter with Boots! Of course, his greeting and catchphrase made things sound worse than they really were.

Boots: I'll eat you!! Fancy meetin' you here, bud! In a swamp!

I’m happy to report he did not eat me.

Today, another villager had a birthday: Cube! I headed over to his party, where I also found Aurora. It’s another penguin party! I gave Cube a Fire Bar that I got from a fortune cookie at the Emporium.

Cube: A Fire Bar?! Whoa! I did NOT expect this.
This should heat things up. 🔥

Of course, I’m just now realizing that flaming balls of fire are probably not the best thing to give a penguin. Well, at least he doesn’t live in an igloo. 😛

Today (January 29th) is National Puzzle Day, so I went home and played a few games of Animal Crossing Puzzle League to celebrate. 🧩

It's a New Nintendo 3DS! Do you want to play some Animal Crossing Puzzle League?
I sure do!

  1. Seeing that it is National Puzzle Day, now I need to play a puzzle game. I played Tetris Attack and Kablooey yesterday and a few days ago I played Tetrisphere.
